“Traditionally in the days leading up to the new year, the women of the family gather together to prepare the meze dishes for the NYE festivities, many hands making light work over black tea and gossip.
A lovingly labor-intensive recipe perfect for times of togetherness such as these, each delicately crafted morsel made to melt in your mouth, drenched in rich olive oil and tangy lemon juice.
In part one of our 2-part Sarma Series, we invite you to enjoy these quiet days between Christmas and whats to come, sitting with your nearest and dearest to roll some Yaprak Sarma (stuffed grape leaves) one of our most favorite Meze of all time!”
